Re-examining philosophical discourse on justice, this book questions the success of the positivists in avoiding extra-legal normative claims, and casts doubt on the plausibility of their criticism of the Natural Law tradition. It is intended for students and researchers in philosophy and politics.

Otfried Hoffe is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Tubingen.
